I rented a car for a day to visit the lavender fields in Provence. The staff at the store provided us with a mini, which was suitable for two people, and the driving experience was quite enjoyable. The weather that day wasn't great—it was hot and sunny, and it rained heavily in the afternoon. The car almost got stuck in the mud, but the locals were very enthusiastic and helped guide us to get it out. Overall, the rental and driving experience was excellent!

It was great. Since we were a group of five, we booked a large car. The Volvo we reserved wasn’t available, so we got a Peugeot 408 sport model instead. It worked out fine as it was also a new car. Be sure to read more tips and experiences in the review section. Before departure, follow Avis's email to register your personal and credit card details. When you reach the pickup point, you can verify your passport and get the keys without any hassle. The process was incredibly smooth.

Pick-up and drop-off were quick, within ten minutes. You can use a French driver's license. The price is much cheaper than the official website. We were lucky to get a free upgrade to an automatic car.

There are additional insurance promotions. In-store insurance requires a 150 Euro deposit, but if you don't buy insurance, the deposit is 1000 Euros. First time driving, even with QEEQ super insurance, I still spent 30 Euros on extra insurance.
